We rescue a Compaq Deskpro 386/25m, a machine that is a bit of a hidden gem. Quite a number of things go right with this restoration and the results really speak for themselves.
If you need a setup utility, perhaps you can find one here:
ftp.zx.net.nz/pub/archive/ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp6001-6500
I have no idea about the reliability of that site though. You need a version of the driver that has your machine. In my case sp6144 was sufficient.
